Nine Days (9 Days) - Nine Days (9 Days)-Funeral For A Love Lyrics

Blood roses my bed

your sugar my hour

this is the moment

this is the Tower

Dressed in your jewels

Your ribbons and lace

Painted with seasons

Winter, my face

One thing missing

One thing I own

My gown of red blood

my place of "alone"

Cut at the plastic

which covers my flesh

Give me your reasons

Give me what's left

I run in the meadow

where I was sheltered and fed

to find someone living

before I was dead

I ran to his mother

who sent me away

I ran to his father

weakened and gray

I lay in the flowers

which covered my wounds

and wept for my lover

and cursed the power of the moon







my breathing was slow

heavy and cold

I felt the pain of sorrow

the pain of the old

I sent a soul down

to bring me back home

So I could go on

In this hell all alone

Welcome to the funeral for a love

welcome to me eternity

welcome to the home of every fear

welcome to the death

of a body

of a soul

of an entity

(whisper)

i never meant to let you down

I never meant to be so weak

I never meant to be so insignificant

I never meant to not be what you wanted

I never meant to not trust you

I never meant to harm you

I never meant to make you cry

It was never meant for me to die
